Last minute news- Dominican Republic – 11/2021
The Royal tern gallery has finally been supplied with more interesting and better photos. There are not many of them, because in the Dominican Republic I had one short meeting with a king tern, but better pictures and recording of the voice of the tern were made. Interestingly, it was one species of bird in the Dominican Republic in which I noticed wedding rings.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird
Hummingbirds
Although I managed to capture many species of hummingbirds, you can find there one description of all 22 species photographed in Costa Rica together. This time my expedition took longer and the light was better, I had therefore an opportunity to take many dynamic pictures. It is interesting that driving around Costa Rica after traveling several kilometers there were species of hummingbirds completely different from those we could observe earlier. Dostateczne |
Ruddy Ground-Dove
Columbidae
It belongs to the doves occurring in the tropical zone of Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Mexico as well as Trinidad and Tobago. They weigh up to 56 gram, and their body length is about 18 cm. Unfortunately I did not have many opportunities to photograph this bird, although it is said to be quite common… Dostateczne |

Ruddy shelduck
Anseriformes
It was worth flying to Fuerteventura to see ducks - ruddy shelducks, there on the rocky, brown desert. A shelducks pair allowed me to take a few photos, but any attempt to reduce the distance always ended with their departure. Always, as I tried three times to capture them in the best possible way. Ruddy shelduck’s weight does not exceed 1.6 kilogram and a wingspan is less than 1.5 meter. Pictures showing them in flight with the desert landscape in the background, are probably the most interesting and most representative of the species in my gallery. Dobre |

Ruddy Turnstone
Charadriiformes
I admit that when I was getting up at 5 am in August in Swinoujście to go to the seaside with the camera I was quite skeptical about what I could photograph. The holiday season in a place like that means people on the beach practically around the clock. But without trying I will have no pictures for sure. When coming to the beach I could confess my fears proved correct, even so early you could count a dozen people. Bardzo dobre |

Ruddy-Heded Goose
Anseriformes
This gallery was created upon one encounter with the ruddy-headed goose in Patagonia. The scenery in which the pictures were taken was so beautiful and colorful, very much like the boreal forest heathlands. Males of the ruddy-headed goose can reach up to 2 kg, while the females are lighter and they weigh up to 1.5 kg. It occurs in the south of South America, in Argentina and Chile (Land of Fire).

Ruddy-tailed Flycatcher
Passerine
We photographed in several placed on Costa Rica. In such a small country it is sometimes a matter of several dozen kilometers and one has to do with completely different species. The transportation was the biggest problem. The roads in Costa Rica do not belong to good ones, and in order to drive 80 kilometers we had to spend 3 hours in a car. We reached another photography spot. A new thing for us there was a morning photography session by a not very large white sheet, next to which a bulb was left for the night turned on. The light attracted insects all night. Dokumentacyjne |
